Wii gets all the Features of the PS3 and XBox360 versions plus Wii-specific ones. Looks like someone other than HVS can make good Wii games.

Take Two's CEO did say they can't ignore the Wii anymore.

hopefully this steps up from 2K9, that game blew

This would be exciting if it weren't for the fact that EA's recent hockey games are miles ahead of the 2k games.

I never really liked EA's hockey games. Be a Pro was dissapointing, each new release seems like a patches version of the last.

All I was expecting was a slightly improved 2K9 with simple online for the Wii, then this happened.

2k10 for Wii actually looks promising, but there is no way I'd buy it till a bunch of reviews came out due to previous efforts by take two.

Hmm, it does sound good.

Exactly.

The fact that neither MLB2k09 or The Bigs 2 had any online, or any real improvements over last year's sophoric efforts was truly disappointing.  NHL2k9 wasn't so hot either.    But this looks like a real effort and I'll be watching it accordingly.

For those of us who are sole Wii owners, and haven't received any of EA's recent hockey games, this is exciting (although, if T2's usual "efforts" apply then whatever.......another buggy/glitchy game).
